50 Things Siri Can Do: iOS 7 Tip for iPhone & iPad Users [Video]

Everyone knows that Siri can do a lot of stuff for you. It’s one of the finest smart assistants (no, let’s not start the comparisons with Google Now, now). And credit where credit’s due: Apple’s Siri is probably the first truly successful commercial smart assistant.

One good thing about iOS 7 is that Siri’s prowess has been increased tremendously. Obviously, it’s hard to figure out all that Siri can do but PhoneBuff has uploaded a video that shows 50 things that Siri can do. Some of them are connected to a particular theme (for instance, NFL or movies), and it’s amazing how Siri learns to understand continuous questions just like in a human.
